I posted this on another forum and the answers I got were pretty lame... I asked at that forum because there are a lot of them there who blog... for writers they sure don't read:

I'm Ditching Word Press
Good thing there isn't that much there. I'm already fed up with it. Every little update or plugin I have to go reset files and there are a gazillion of them ... that's too much work for a simple personal site.
Any suggestions out there?
The answers I got were it's my installation/plugins... That when you install plugins that it messes up files... Didn't I say that in my initial post? ... I do know how to reset files when they need to be... Other answers were telling me how to reset the files... The problem with word press I'm finding is that it will start with one error message after a plugin installation or update, fix that, get another error, and so on until you've spent an hour or two or three resetting a whole lot of files.
I said that's too much work for a personal site.
************
Where in that first part did I say I didn't know that it has to be done or HOW to do it?
*********
I don't want to spend hours resetting files every time I add, change, or update the thing. It's a personal site, not a business site, and I don't have the kind of time to fool around with the site.
If I did, I would just use straight HTML and Frontpage to update when I have something new to say and probably be done sooner than 1-3 hours.
So I asked basically for something easier to maintain, more stable. Nobody had anything to say on that because they were busy telling me stuff I already knew...
Fact to remember, writers don't read.
End rant.
